Our next WXR book group meeting will discuss The Machine Stops by E M Forster (first published 1909). We've read some long humdingers recently so this one is a change - an 117 year old short story which can be read in an hour. Also available as a download pdf. 

A BBC Arts editor says this: 'The Machine Stops is not simply prescient; it is jaw-droppingly, gob-smackingly, breath-takingly accurate ..'  Please join us to chat about E M Forster's vision of the future - everyone is welcome!
